I was sitting reading my bible one morning about a year ago & all of a sudden I felt the need to pray for Joel. I thought it was very strange out of the blue to be praying for someone that I didn't even know. I kept hearing oppression & depression and that he had a deep hurt of some kind. I prayed for him often after that & still do. I have always felt very blessed that the Lord used me to possibly help one of Gods chosen leaders. I do believe he has something very special that God has called him to do. God bless! 🙏
Please Pray against witchcraft and spiritual warfare. At mental instition for Jesus! I prayed and baptised one in The shower. 1 Got saved and healed physicly. I Pray for people and try to share The light - Need a miracle
Came across this tonight, and could not have been more perfect timing! Incase you happen to see this comment, thank you Joel, for sharing your story and for the words about waiting, healing, trusting ... the Lord orchestrates things so amazingly ! I'm encouraged!
I was in the room for that message. I was so drawn in that I couldn't take notes, I was just hanging on every word that was said. Thanks for posting Hillsong. Would everybody that hears this know God loves you and he cares for you ❤️
I came here by accident today, and listened thinking wow, he's a little unhinged, but then discovered a message from the Father Heart of God which left me in tears and filled with hope. Whatever you're going through, right now, you're still here, because He is. Thanks Joel, God bless from the UK xx
It's so rare for me to find an album whereby every single song is applicable to my life and my struggles in various stages of life. Thus far only the album people has hit the mark it started with *Whole Heart* and *Echoes* then *Good Grace* then I had a period of six months where I listened to *As you Find Me* over and over and over and atm it's *Clean* and *Ready or Not* and that statement of every song has its right time has never been more applicable for me than the past two years. I have struggled with depression and anxiety for so long. It's prevented me from completing Higher Education despite the fact that I know it's where God is calling me and anytime I listen to any of the songs from the *People* album no matter how low I'm feeling I get motivation to complete at least one task.
Nice to hear that Daisy. Praying that you find the courage to go back and complete your higher education since it's what God is calling you to. His grace will surely see you through. Stay blessed
Dear friends, The world is reaching the end. Only Jesus Christ can save you. Deny yourself, pick up your cross and follow Him. Ask yourself if you are willing to give up your very life for Him. Does your life reflect the simple, humble life of Jesus, who had nothing to call His own in this world? Examine yourselves, as Paul says. Study the Bible daily and pray without ceasing. God is your only strength. "Set your mind on things of above and not things of this world" - Colossians 3:2 A friend in Christ.
I've been there also for a couple moment in my life. The moment when I was numb to everything. Nothing to look forward to. So empty, dead inside. But thank God, I'm still here because that's where God wants me to be. That's the journey of my faith in Jesus Christ. I will keep moving on to wherever you want me to be. More than anything, You're still here with me, Lord. Thank you Jesus.
I love the way Taya puts a different touch on this beautiful song every time she sings it ♥️ God has blessed her with an annointed voice and she has touched millions with her praise and worship in the form of music 🌟🙏
Thank you!!! Stepping stones to stumbling blocks in 5 seconds flat…God has been preparing me to hold that before me…before whatever comes next…😭🙌🏻 When Joel Houston stepped his feet in Norfolk, VA…he was taking this territory for God!!! Even through his childhood illness! God is good!!! We’re glad God sent you here-he sent reinforcements praise His name forever!!! Thanks for coming!!!
Lord thank u so much for giving another life to handle a different mission in this world with ur love n care n protection we have to do it free n happy to serve ur promise to our nation as one . We love u Jesus for the rest of our life . Amen
I didn't think id listen to the whole thing but i did.When God wants to use you nothing can stop him even you cant stand in the way of him using you.He has a purpose with each and everyone of us just make yourself available and when his about to use its the time where satan tries to get closer to you and make you miss the purpose...🙏Wow!! Im trusting in God🙌
I'm still here. God never leaves me alone, leave us alone. I do not know what is coming I do not need to know. I will trust Him. He trust me even when I did not. Like what Joe said, this is my life. These moments. All of my pains, my waiting season, worship moment.. Every single moment of my life. God is with me. This is the truth. Thank you Father. I thought this won't finish. It doesn't really matter actually. For You live in me. My praise and worship will never stop because I am still here. I love you Daddy Jesus❤ Thank you God for speaking through your wonderful son Joel Houston.🙏
Joel thank you for sharing your life experiences. Truth is the walk with God does get real in levels that one can feel shifted out of balance but the sweet part is in those moments the Lord wants to get real with you and wants to renew your strength and carry you to another level of His glory and fellowship with you as a dear father. I feel like you are a big brother taking steps of faith ahead so that those who come behind you may also be encouraged. Stay true to your God given purpose.
i’m so grateful for joel’s life and for his powerful testimony! glad this has been uploaded for more people to hear it. maybe one day we’ll even get a memoir. 😗👀
Joel, thank you so much for this message. I feel like this is what I needed now, going through life where I feel like there’s no clarity on what’s going to happen next. “Trust in The Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding.” Thank you, and I will wake up everyday, doing what I have to do again and again, and keep trusting The Lord in every step I take.
Thank you for this joel. I am watching this in the peak of so many horrible things happening in my personal life and the world. This helps immensely to keep me going and grow my faith. I sooooo love this and you!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you, Joel for opening your heart and sharing this amazing message. So real so honest. You are such a gift for the body of Christ! Thank you, for blessing us with this message
No começo parecia que ele não estava falando nada com nada, mas, depois foi muito edificante o testemunho dele. Todos passamos por momentos difíceis. Joel Deus te abençoe e te fortaleça!
Wow. This morning as I'm looking for some worship or teaching to encourage me, God leads me here. God is never late He is always on time. I know this is creative conference last November and my son was there at that time ! But this is very timely message for me. Thanks, Joel for your transparency in doing this you never know how many people have been motivated by simply telling them that Hey you are never alone. I am one of those that is now motivated and encouraged.God bless your heart and your ministry. Forever grateful to God for what you're doing to reach out to people.God bless you! Jesus is Lord!
Trust Jesus Even In The Quiet Times he's in Control & he's Non Stop Working. If You're Still here Your Purpose & God's Will For Your Life Is Still in Motion. JOURNEY**👍🏾💯♥️🙏🏾☺️
Perspective changes things. Our own understanding either helps, enables, or divides. I want to help those understand by being the light to those I'm around. Words matter some, but our time and commitment matter more to God then anything else. Love ya Joel! Don't give up!
Joel I was wondering even this weekend how I haven't seen you during this COV 19, singing in the online services...just wondering if you were OK. And I am just here scrolling through, and I saw this...Joel Houston- "Am Still Here"...lol. Just saying thank you for being real, and thank you for the songs. God Bless Bro.

Just finished watching his father’s interview from yesterday and I really like him and we need to give each other grace. The church needs to remember what is what and start afresh with the lord after repenting for what has transpired over last 6 years for me. My honest advice is maybe 🤔 just maybe we could work on songs without all that nonsense that created this tangled mess that some little person from Youngstown started my part of this. I was happy when for the first time my church was the center of the new sound, but who ever it was caused problems between two artists that actually can move people closer to the lord even as dysfunctional as it started. Imagine if I moved down under in 2015? Truth is the way the let it develop makes sure we don’t get ahead of what the lords plan is
